Abstract

본 연구는 요양병원 간병사의 낙상예방인지도에 미치는 영향요인을 파악하기 위한 서술적 조사연구이다. 자료수집기간은 2014년 7월 1일부터 8월 31일까지였다. D광역시와 N시에 소재하는 7개 요양병원의 간병사를 대상으로 편의 표집 하였다. 수집된 자료 215부 중 200부를 분석에 이용하였다. 연구결과 첫째, 요양병원 간병사의 학력, 요양보호사 자격증 유무, 근무경력과 낙상관련 교육시간에 따른 낙상예방인지도에서 유의한 차이가 있었다. 둘째, 낙상예방건강신념 중 지각된유익성, 지각된장애성, 지각된민감성과 낙상예방효능감은 낙상예방인지도와 유의한 양의 상관관계가 있었다. 셋째, 요양병원 간병사에게 영향을 주는 개인적 특성을 통제한 상태에서 위계적 회귀분석한 결과, 정적영향요인은 지각된유익성, 낙상예방효능감, 지각된민감성, 부적영향요인은 근무경력으로 나타났으며, 이들 변수의 낙상예상인지도에 대한 설명력은 31.7%였다. 이러한 결과로 요양병원 간병사의 낙상예방인지도를 증가시키기 위해 간병사의 근무경력에 따른 낙상예방효능감과 건강신념 중 지각된 유익성과 지각된 민감성을 높일 수 있는 프로그램을 적극 모색해야할 것이다. The purpose of this study is to investigate the factors that affect the fall prevention awareness of care-givers working at long-term care hospitals. A convenience sampling method was used to select care-givers who worked at 7 different long term care hospitals which were located in D city and N city. Data were collected from July 2014 to August 2014. 200 data were used for analysis out of 215 data which were collected. The hierarchical regression analysis reveals the following results: Firstly, the effects of care-givers' education level, certificate status, period of work experience and fall-related learning hours on their fall prevention awareness level were statistically significant. Secondly, among fall prevention health beliefs, perceived benefit, perceived disability, perceived sensitivity and self-efficacy were positively related to the level of fall prevention awareness. Thirdly, while such factors as perceived benefit, perceived sensitivity and self-efficacy showed positive effects on the fall prevention awareness, the period of work experience had negative effects. The regression model shows the power of explanation of 31.7 percents. In conclusion, the study suggests a fine-tuned program to improve care-givers' fall prevention awareness in a way of promoting fall prevention self-efficacy, perceived benefits and perceived sensitivity while considering the care-givers' period of work experience.
